    There is a Sticky in Electrical and Lighting which goes through the motions of reading the NEC online. NFPA 70 can also be read through the same general links.

    Is there a way to download or view the entire 2008 NEC code book for free or for a nominal fee?

    Go to:

    2008 National Electrical CodeŽ (NEC)

    Note, there are two pages of options to purchase the NEC NFPA 70.

    Keep in mind, there will be a new code issued for 2011.

    I do not think what your looking for is available.

    NFPA is the only organization to purchase direct from the publisher.

    Any other site will either be a legal reseller, or bogus.

    Thanks for your answer. I've bit the bullet and ordered a 2008 codebook.

    Please tell me the distance requirement for a gfci. How far from the sink or tub, etc. for a gfci NOT to be required?
